Physical Description

Dashiell cuts a striking figure at least in silhouette. He is tall and lean with a well-defined musculature. His deep maroon hair is kept cut close with gel in it to keep his bangs flicked up in the front. Dashiell has a broad face with a strong, clean-shaven jaw and pronounced brows ridges, offering him an almost dark and brooding expression especially when paired with his bright orange eyes.

Due to a flight accident, Dashiell now possesses a metal right arm, hand, and shoulder. Additionally, his entire left side of his body is scarred from nasty burns. Half his face, most of his chest and back, as well as his left leg are all a mess of puckered, mottled flesh. He is also missing his left ear and eyebrow. The wounds have healed and left him functional if damaged.

He used to have a multitude of tattoos as well but a lot of his scarring has rendered them nonexistent. His back still has half of the Libra set of scales balancing a feather with a snarling wolf head. The balanced heart on the other side with a mirrored submissive wolf are now missing. All the tattoos on both his arms are missing as well. He has thought about getting his back fixed or new tattoos but never gotten around to it.

When out of uniform, Dashiell tends to wear clothes that will cover the majority of his skin. Dark shirts are high collared and long-sleeved, paired with long pants and thick-soled boots. Under his shirt is also his dog tags along with a small, plain ring band. He wears a matching silver one on his left ring finger. He also keeps a lone, well-worn dog tag in his pocket that in private, quiet moments or times of indecision he has been known to thumb in thought.

Personality

Even before the accident, Dashiell has always been a cocky sonsofabitch. He was and is a good pilot and he knows it. He'd be the first to tell you it too. He's the kind of guy that could butt heads with people for a living without breaking a sweat. Dashiell is bullheaded and enjoys going head to head with someone both verbally and physically. He certainly thinks he could out-fly anyone any day, any time.

Since the incident though, he has become far more bitter and caustic. He practically enjoys pissing on people's parades and spitting in the face of other people's happiness. His already questionably reckless and rebellious behavior has only become moreso as time goes on. It is not enough to get him in serious trouble though he has gone toe to toe with his superiors more than usual of late.

Dashiell is miserable and on his own personal warpath to make others suffer along with him. While cleared for duty, he is still mandated to attend therapy for the loss of his mage and other personal issues. Dashiell has seen his file and he knows they think him suicidal. Personally, he isn't sure which scares him more: dying or having to live without Reese.

Things
  • Earned the name TrickShot from his ex-Mage for all the hairpin crazy stunts he would pull in the cockpit.
  • Secretly loves cuddling and is a bit of a romantic at heart. Has always wanted a family and kids.
  • Loves to read but will vehemently deny any of those love stories on his shelf as belonging to him. They were CERTAINLY his ex-spouse's and you can't tell him otherwise.
  • Quite talented with charcoal art.
  • Completely inept in the kitchen.
  • Has an antique ship he's rebuilding he's already named Baelicos, Flagship of the Damned.

Magic/Abilities

Lycanthropy: Dashiell comes form a long line of lycanthropes with their blood watered down with humans. As such he is not as strong as his ancestors though he still possesses many of their abilities. When angry or stressed enough he can force his body into taking on a more wolfman appearance, strength and speed, increasing in height and bulk both. He becomes hairier and his face becomes more elongated. His already increased senses in human form also become stronger. The first sign of the lycan close to the surface is always the flash of gold in his eyes usually followed by the baring of teeth and growling.

However, he never becomes a full wolf. Nor is his change affected by silly things (in his mind) such as moon or star phases. It is purely emotion-based for him. With a great deal of patience and concentration on his part he has proved capable of changing select features alone such as his eyes or ears to increase sight or hearing.

Additionally, due to his nature, Dashiell does believe in soulmates. He was raised with the understanding that with patience, one day he would find his. It is believed by his line that mates only happen once and that each generation is reincarnated to find their soulmates again and again through the years. There have been far and few between cases of a mate making it back into life again of the one they left behind but it is most unheard of. Furthermore, mating and binding your soul to someone not your mate means that should your mate ever come along they must deal with the pain of rejection as there is no undoing a mate-bond save in death, something that often drives the living mate insane with grief and loss.

Relationships

Reese Plantina: Dashiell's former Duo Mage and lover. He loved them with all his being and truly believed they were his mate and bonded for the end of times. He blames himself endlessly for their death and not a day goes by where he doesn't think about them. (Art By Me) Wedding anniversary: 2/1. Death: 10/2.

Lil Tit and Ivana Seecock: Reese's pair of tiny finches that Dashiell absolutely despised when his former lover was alive. With their death, he is now in charge of their care. They are one of the last things left he has of them and as much as he hates it, he continues to keep them. Their chirping and squawking is a constant source of frustration for him.

Nicodemo del-Nestore: Reese's ex-partner before Dashiell. The two of them had a violent first introduction followed by a series of misunderstandings and harsh truths coming to light. They have a complicated relationship filled with barbs at each other's expense. (But damn does Nico smell good).

Latreille Fer: The only Bibi capable of striking the fear of god into Dashiell when he's being particularly nasty.

Ryul Radiant: Owner of Sweet Dreams Bakery. Dashiell knows he owes a lot to Ryul who has been nothing but kind to him since day one despite how much of a dick Dashiell can and has been. As a result, Dash is rather protective of Ryul and quite likes the other man. Ryul's good-humor is infectious after all.

History

The son of military officers, Dashiell grew up with high expectations and standards preset for himself. He came from a long line of military folk on both sides without the lycanthrope heritage piled on top of it. Dashiell was well educated, attended his years of university after regular schooling and joined up as an officer in the Duo branch.

It was there that he was partnered with Reese, a creature so infuriating that putting the two of them together was like throwing water on hot oil. They were explosive in their disagreements, often getting themselves in trouble for their epic fights.

Over time though the pair grew to trust each other and work together seamlessly. They became inseparable and in time they became something more. Reese was the other half of Dashiell's existence. He would do anything for the slender spitfire that loved to drive him insane in every way possible.

Then, there was the accident. It was a routine mission, get in, get out, come home. Nothing to worry about. The pair had been laughing and joking about the stupidest things when the engine failure alarms began to screech in warning. All systems down, the ship was was losing oxygen and hurtling through space towards the hangerbay doors. They just had to hold on a few moments more and if Dashiell could land it they would be fine.

If only that were the case. He got them to touch down but the impact caused a spark that ignited the oxygen support systems in their ship, causing a large explosion. Crews worked quickly to free the pair and rush them to medical. Both were severely burned and Dashiell's right arm had to be amputated due to severe crush damage. Reese did not survive and succumbed to their injuries during surgery.

Piecing together events after the fact it is believed that Reese sacrificed much of their own safety in order to help contain the impact explosion so as to protect the station and the crews already on the ground. They were given a soldier's funeral and their ashes were scattered among the stars.

Dashiell switched branches of military becoming a solo flyer and starting from the ground up again. He finds it easier to scorn his former comrades than to accept any of their pity or whispers behind his back. At least now he has a legitimate reason to rail against them as rivals.
